Test fit my Auto Coutures on the ML55

I bought these wheels a long time ago off a guy with an SL, I recently bought a ML 55 and started thinking hmmmm?
I know there needs to be more tire, but the calipers clear there is no rubbing. Will the offset wheels affect my AWD? Im I idiot for putting offset wheels on my SUV?

looks good! all you realy need to worry about is getting the correct tire size on those wheels. the change is wheel offset won't affect the AWD but there isn't much you can do anyways since the suspension is not really adjustable

you may want to check the load bearing on those wheels to make sure they can handle the weight of your ML. MLs are heavvyyyyy

Dude - no offense - but your kidding right?
Are those 12's? - it looks like ur about to be hittin switches and do a three wheel turn. And if ur not a Coyote smuggling entire Mexican families across the border in those wheel wells drop that thing son!

But otherwise they look great

Whatever there's gas in...
Hey Mr. Comedian, did you even read the original post? He plans on adding more tire, he was curious as to how the design would look on the ML and how they would fit.
